I don't really like the job itself, though i'll do it. It's not really that interesting and it's pretty mundane, only upside is some of the people you find, occasionally a rare gem amongst the coal.
So, because I choose to be an Admin, I can't be allowed to play the game in the time i'm not being an Admin? Seems bad, how else are you going to fully understand the game and see it exactly from the players point of view?
It isn't exactly slave labour; what is expected of us and what is given in return however, could be considered "slavery". For the amount we actually deal with, we should get paid. Gamemasters that get paid probably put up with less than we do.
Nope, not really - Admins owning an active gang on their STAFF account, bad idea - I agree. Player account however, they should be free to do that to an extent, if it comes to a point where they start overlapping, this is when something should happen. Not before. End of the day, not all of us are incapable of differing the two. Thus no need to penalize all of us.
(Your last comment was false, people wanting the tools isn't why you started a thread about admins owning gangs

)
